The model makes Alex Michelsen the favorite with a 61% win probability, against Daniel Merida Aguilar's 39% — a solid favorite, though Aguilar keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.64; the offered odds are around @1.39 (a 72% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: #40 vs #59 (better ranked); 1-0 in favor; model 61% vs market 72% → the model sees it as less likely than the odds; 9/10 in recent matches.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 61%, that outcome happens roughly that percentage of the time, with ~65% out-of-sample accuracy — but being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 39 out of every 100 times Aguilar wins. The model also tends to agree with the market, so the odds already capture almost all the edge: don't take it as a sure value.
